In 1986, two young girls meet for the first time. By the end of the day the lives of Jade and Bel will forever be changed and a child will be dead. Throughout the book we get peeks into what happened that day. Most of the book takes place in 2011. Amber Gordon works at Funnland amusement park. She works at night as a cleaner, although she also supervises some of her co-workers. Her time at home is spent with her long-term partner Vic, and with Mary Kate and Ashley - her adorable Yorkies. (No there isn't a picture in the book, but I just know they are adorable!) Not surprisingly the Yorkies treat her better than Vic does! Still she can't believe a guy as good-looking as Vic has stayed with her so long.
Kirsty Lindsay lives in a modest, but nice home with her husband, Jim, and their two kids. Things are a bit tense because Jim has been unemployed for a while now and the job search isn't going well. So Kirsty has a lot of pressure on her as the only bread-winner at the moment. She works as a free-lance journalist, so her income isn't always steady. In Whitmouth a young woman is murdered and her body is found by Amber. Kirsty goes to Whitmouth to cover the developing story and of course she wants to talk to Amber......but maybe she won't want to when she actually sees Amber! An enjoyable mystery - not 'cozy' but not graphic.
